OnePlus 2 screen not pressure sensitive?



Contrary to every other Android device I've owned, the OP2's screen seems not to be pressure sensitive. Can someone else confirm this?

In Developer options enable "Pointer location" and check the values on top.

For me Pressure always stays at 1.0 and Size remains at 0.02.

[Question]Force touch / Pressure touch on current Android Phones.



I just saw post claiming synaptics is going to bring force touch displays for Android... So I was just thinking about that, I came up with this.



All water proof phones(and some other phones) has a pressure sensor inside them.
For Xperia Z series phones you can test the pressure sensor from service menu. The harder you press, larger the pressure change.


So I was wondering, can we actually mod current androids to respond to abrupt - large pressure changes while touch position is taken into consideration?

A small pressure change means a normal touch, a large change (like 3-5) would mean a press and this + normal touch location.

Can this mimic the Huawei / apples force touch screens? Since its almost the same thing, touch location + change in pressure. We could have multiple levels of touch or just 2 levels, a touch and a press!
